| New Rega Planer 8 (P8) Turntable - Apheta 2 Cartridge Combo - Thoughts I went through similar problems with my Prime and lost interest in vinyl for a while. My wife kept questioning me as to why I wasn't playing records when I spent so much on the Prime and accessories. Took me a year to make a decision to move on ... | |
| Rockport Atria or Focal Scala + Accuphase components ? Since an in home demo with those larger sized speakers probably is taboo, could you schlepp that big Accuphase amp to where you are auditioning the speakers? Is your Accuphase a Class A model? I would think that either of those speakers would so... | |
| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) @rabbitholedigger...…………………….If I had a much bigger room , instead of the GE T REFs, I would have a pair of the Legacy Aerius with Wavelet. I heard them at Audio Classics with my Mac amp driving them. All I can say is breathless. | |
| Curious what people think is the best "value" high end speaker (~5K to 15K) gene3x...……………..With those Power Guard lights flashing, that amp is putting out somewhere around 750-800 watts RMS as the MC501 has 2DB of headroom. I am surprised you didn't blow your eardrums out. I run an MC152 with GE Triton Ref speakers and... | |
| Why don't all phono preamps include a rumble filter? @dwette...……………………Agreed, but sometimes it is the ONLY option after all else fails. | |

| Rogue audio amp thoughts @aberyclark .........When I had my RP5 and spoke to Rogue, I was told the Stereo100 and RP5 was a match made in Heaven. I bet it will sound amazing. | |
| Why don't all phono preamps include a rumble filter? I had 3 different VPI turntables, a HW19 MK4, Scout And Prime. All 3 of them neccistated a KAB Rumble filter. Like yourself, I couldn’t move the turntable from its position. I tried everything I could think of, 4 different types of platforms, d... | |

| How did a bands' name originate? Lynyrd Skynyrd was named after the Principal or teacher (Leonard Skinner) at a school the Van Zant Brothers attended. | |
| Heard Maggie 3.7i with.. There are many McIntosh haters in this world. It is usually because they can't afford them so they bash them. I have 6 Mac pieces that perform flawlessly and all have been made within the last 10 years. I have been to the factory twice for a t... | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G Do you think the alloy mat will take away the benefit of having the brass in the SL1200 G platter? | |
| Well... guess I have to jump in the rabbit hole of speaker cables... lol I doubt it’s the Mac preamp. One thing McIntosh is not is raspy. Look elsewhere within the system. | |
| Nottingham Spacedeck vs Rega Planar 8 vs Technics SL1200G @atmasphere ………………………………..In your opinion, what mat would you use on the Technics SL1200G? | |
